Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system for combining a transmitter and a receiver using a circulator and a method for canceling a transmission signal thereof, and more particularly, to a system for combining a transmitter and a receiver using a circulator and a method for canceling a transmission signal thereof, in which a transmission signal incoming to a receiver together with a reception signal is cancelled by generating a 180° phase inverted transmission signal with the same magnitude and delay time as those of the incoming transmission signal, to thereby improve an electrical separation degree of the transmitter and the receiver and simultaneously to reduce volume and cost thereof.
- a transmission/reception antenna is commonly used in various mobile communication and wireless communication base stations, relay systems or military communication devices
- a conventional system for combining a transmitter and a receiver which is used for smoothly combining the transmitter and the receiver with the antenna uses an expensive component called a duplexer to combine the transmitter and the receiver, in which an electrical separation degree is sufficiently secured during combining the transmitter and the receiver owing to the electrical characteristics of the duplexer.
- the duplexer uses a number of dielectric resonators, an electrical loss of the duplexer is considerable. Since the transmission and reception bands are fixed in the duplexer, a pass band frequency is variable. In particular, the duplexer cannot be adapted in a secret conversation communication system which is used in a military communication device whose transmission/reception pass band is inverted frequently.
- the conventional transmitter/receiver combination circuit uses a duplexer 1 which is connected with an antenna 3 , in which a transmission band pass filter 1 a and a reception band pass filter 1 b for filtering a transmission signal Tx and a reception signal Rx, respectively are integrated into a single body.
- a sufficient circuitry frequency separation feature can be obtained according to the performance of the respective band pass filters 1 a and 1 b of the duplexer 1 .
- the fixed transmission/reception band pass filters 1 a and 1 b of the duplexer 1 block the transmission/reception bands in the case that the pass band is successively varied and the pass band is inverted, resulting in causing the duplexer not to be used in the transmitter/receiver combination circuit. Also, since the number of stages of the resonators in each band pass filter 1 a or 1 b of the duplexer increases, signal loss and cost increase due to insertion of dielectric resonators into the pass band.
- FIG. 2 Another conventional transmission/reception combination circuit shown in FIG. 2 combines a transmitter and a receiver with a circulator 2 , in which an antenna 3 is connected to a first end of the circulator 2 in order to increase a separation degree and transmission and reception band pass filters 1 a and 1 b are connected to second and third ends, respectively.
- the circulator 2 transfers a supplied signal without causing an electrical signal loss in an arrow direction of the circulator 2 , but has an electrical separation feature in an opposite direction of the arrow.
- the circulator 2 has a separation degree of 20 dB in general.
- the circulator 2 has a merit capable of securing the separation degree of about 20 dB.
- a large power amplification of a transmission signal Tx is accomplished in a power amplifier (not shown) in a transmitter, then a harmonic component due to the amplification is removed in the transmission band pass filter 1 a , and then the resultant signal is emitted toward the antenna 3 , while passing through the circulator 2 , in which case the high power transmission signal Tx from which 20 dB or so is attenuated in the circulator 2 is input to the receiver circuit from the circulator 2 together with the reception signal Rx.
- the low noise amplifier does not perform a smooth operation and is in saturation state to thereby lose performance of the amplifier.
- the separation degree of the 20 dB or so is considerably insufficient in view of stability of the transmission/reception communication system.
- the conventional FIG. 2 technology should add transmission and reception band pass filters 1 a and 1 b in order to supplement the insufficient frequency separation degree as in the FIG. 1 technology.
- the number of stages of the resonators in each band pass filter should be increased in order to obtain a sufficient separation band, a loss in the pass band occurs.
- the fixed transmission/reception band pass filters 1 a and 1 b of the duplexer 1 block the transmission/reception bands in the case that the pass band is successively varied and the pass band is inverted, resulting in causing the duplexer not to be used in the transmitter/receiver combination circuit.

- a transmitter/receiver combination system 30 using a single stage circulator plays a role of combining a transmitter 10 processing a transmission signal Tx and a receiver 20 processing a reception signal Rx, with a common antenna 15 .
- the transmitter 10 includes a first variable filter 11 for varying a pass band of a transmission signal Tx by several thousand number of times per second and transferring the varied result to a next stage, a power amplifier 12 for large-scale power amplifying the output of the first variable filter 11 , and a harmonic filter 13 for removing a harmonic component included in a power-amplified transmission signal.
- the large-scale power amplified transmission signal Tx passes through the circulator 14 and is irradiated in the air through a transmission/reception common antenna 15 without causing any loss.
- the transmitter/receiver combination system 30 includes the circulator 14 and a canceller 16 for canceling a high power transmission signal Tx which is input to the receiver 20 via the circulator 14 , in which the transmission signal Tx is mixed with the feeble reception signal Rx received in the receiver 20 via the antenna 15 and the circulator 14 together with the circulator.
- the receiver 20 includes a second variable filter 17 whose pass band is varied in order to remove an unnecessary wave other than the reception signal Rx, in which only the feeble reception signal Rx output from the canceller 16 becomes a pass band, and a low noise amplifier 18 for low-noise-amplifying the received feeble reception signal Rx.

- the canceller 16 the signal amplifier 25 , the delay line filter 22 and the first and second couplers 21 and 23 are provided, so that the magnitude and the delay time of the signal are same and the phase thereof differs by 180° between the unbranched and delayed transmission signal Tx and the branched and recombined transmission signal Tx.
- the pass band of the transmission signal Tx is varied several thousands of times per second in the first variable filter 11 and then the transmission signal Tx is transferred to the power amplifier 12 .
- the power amplifier 12 amplifies the transmission signal Tx into the intensity of signal sufficient for radiating the same in the air, to then be transferred to the harmonic filter 13 .
- the harmonic filter 13 cancels a harmonic component occurred due to the amplification and applies the result to the circulator 14 . Accordingly, the transmission signal Tx passing through the circulator 14 without causing a signal loss is radiated in the air via the antenna 15 .
- the transmission signal Tx input from the circulator 14 to the receiver 20 is still a high power transmission signal Tx, although the input transmission signal Tx is attenuated by about 20 dB in comparison with the radiated transmission signal Tx.
- the transmission/reception separation degree of the above-described circulator 14 is nothing but about 20 dB. As a result, a certain phenomenon occurs, in which an approximately 20 dB attenuated transmission signal Tx is input to the receiver 20 . In general, a signal received through the antenna 15 is considerably feeble. Thus, the feeble reception signal Rx and the approximately 20 dB attenuated high power transmission signal Tx are input to the receiver 20 via the circulator 14 .
- the first coupler 21 branches a portion of a transmission/reception signal (Tx+Rx) input to the receiver 20 , that is, an approximately 30 dB attenuated signal and phase-delays the branched signal by 90°.
- the first variable band rejection filter 24 rejects the reception signal Rx and passes only the transmission signal Tx with respect to the low power transmission/reception signal (Tx+Rx) which is branched and 90° phase delayed via the first coupler 21 .
- the signal amplifier 25 amplifies the transmission signal Tx from the first variable band rejection filter 24 into the same magnitude as that of the unbranched transmission signal Tx, and transfers the amplified result to the second coupler 23 .
- the output signal Tx of the signal amplifier 25 is combined to the second coupler 23 , is secondarily phase delayed by 90° with a result that a 180° phase delay occurs in whole.
- the transmission/reception signal (Tx+Rx) unbranched in the first coupler 21 is branched in the delay line filter 22 , delayed to have a phase difference of 180° from the recombined transmission signal Tx, and supplied to the second coupler 23 .
- the recombined 180° phase inverted transmission signal ⁇ Tx is mixed with the output signal Tx+Rx of the delay line filter 22 .
- the high power two transmission signal Tx and ( ⁇ Tx) are offset with each other, and only a feeble reception signal is output to the second variable filter 17 .
- the second coupler 23 phase delays the second transmission signal Tx by 180°, mixed with the first transmission signal Tx and cancelled.
- the high power transmission signal Tx becomes considerably feeble.
- the low power second variable filter 17 has a pass band in which only a feeble reception signal Rx is passed, an unnecessary wave other than the reception signal Rx is cancelled, and then sent to the low noise amplifier 18 .
- the low noise amplifier 18 can amplify the clean reception signal Rx.
- the first embodiment of the present invention varies the band pass frequencies of the first and second variable filters 11 and 17 installed in the transmitter/receiver 10 and 20 and the canceller 16 and the band rejection frequency of the first variable band rejection filter 24 , to thereby vary the transmission/reception frequencies. Further, the first embodiment of the present invention can be applied even in the case that the transmission/reception frequencies are inverted.
- variable filter is made of a semiconductor device, and thus it is difficult to realize it for use: as a high power. Also, since a relatively high power transmission signal Tx is input to the receiver 20 in the prior art, the variable filter cannot be used.
- the present invention offsets the high power transmission signal Tx efficiently by the canceller 16 due to the insufficient separation degree of the circulator 14 . Accordingly, the problem occurred in the case that the transmission/reception pass band is inverted has been solved. It is also possible to use low power variable filters 11 , 17 and 24 which can be implemented relatively with ease.

- the second embodiment since the second embodiment performs a signal processing at the reception side in the state where the noise signal Nx of 40 dB or more has been attenuated, when compared with the first embodiment. Therefore, the second embodiment can obtain the reception signal Rx having a much higher separation degree.
- the second embodiment of the present invention varies the band pass frequencies of the first and second variable filters 11 and 17 installed in the transmitter/receiver 10 and 20 and the cancellers 16 and 16 a and the band rejection frequencies of the first and second variable band rejection filters 24 and 24 a , to thereby vary the transmission/reception frequencies.

- the present invention can be applied at lower cost and more excellent performance, than those in comparison with an existing system using a duplexer having large volume, high cost and large loss.
- the present invention provide a transmission/reception band combination method using a circulator, having an advantage having a loss characteristic lower than the duplexer, and remarkably improving an electrical separation degree of the transmitter/receiver which raises a problem due to the combination method using the existing circulator.
- a single canceller has been provided at the transmission side and/or the reception side.
- the cancellers of a double stage are connected in series at the transmission/reception sides, to thereby remove the transmission signal input to the receiver more perfectly.
- the combination system forms a single branch to remove a transmission signal.
- a proper number of branches are formed, to thereby remove all unnecessary signals including a center signal and harmonic wave signals, which is apparent to a person skilled in the art.
- the present invention generates an inverted transmission signal having the same magnitude and a 180° phase difference as and from that of a transmission signal which is input to a receiver together with a reception signal.
- the frequency separation degree of the transmitter/receiver can be enhanced and simultaneously a coupling loss is small and the volume and cost of the product can be lowered, due to the recombination and canceling.
- the present invention effectively the high power transmission signal input to the receiver, to thereby use a low power variable filter. Accordingly, the sufficient separation degree of the transmitter/receiver can be obtained even in the case that the transmission/reception frequency is variable and the band of the transmission/reception frequency is inverted as in a secret conversation communication.
- the transmission signal input to the receiver can be cancelled in the state where the noise signal of the reception band is attenuated by the canceller provided in the transmitter, to thereby obtain a reception signal Rx while having a high separation degree.
